AL 1SAPToSDAou On CHSlObSs
A significant vote was taken in the House,
yesterday, on the Stubblefeld resolution relative
to the Presidents veto Of the dependent pensions
bill. It reads:
Whereas, A bill for IAN act for the relief of de.
sailors who disabled and dependent upon their
own labor for support as passed by the House OF
hepressenasntives under suspension Of rules e o u
United States without division: and,
Whereas, Said bill has been vetoed by the President;
Whereas. The relief which would have been afford
ed by said bill is greatly needed by large number of
men who counted not the cost but who gladly entered
the service of their country willing to make any sac
rifce to perpetuate its fe and who through fault
of their own. are now incapacitated, by reason of
OF labor in such degree as to render them unable to
earn support; and
Whereas. It would be lasting shame and disgrace
to the people of this land and reflection upon their
patriotism to permit these survivors of the late civil
war to become objects of private charity be
PEELED to spend the remainder of their days in
houses; therefore be it
Resolved, By the House Of Representatives, the
Senate concurrng, that we heartily commend the ac-
from this State of Indiana in their support and advo
cacy of said BILL and that greatly regret the fact
of the Presidents veto of the same and that we be-
leve that urgent necessity exists for the passage
of such a bill. and Senators instructed, and
our Representatives in Congress from Indiana are
hereby requested to use ali proper means to secure
the passage OF such BILL notwithstanding the Presi
dents veto.
The Democrats who favored the resolution

votes. 1t was different with those who took the
negative. and they were all Democrats They
used the chance in extolling President Cleve.

Bridgeport's grand illumination called many out of town, Friday night, but enough remained to comfortably fill the Methodist church It was not profusely decorated; a five pointed star hung in the pulpit recess. over which hung festoons of running pine. Chinese lanterns were dis tributed along the sides of the church. but they were not lighted. The Christmas tree, the harvesting of whose fruit had called out young and old. had been taste fully arranged by Mrs John Radcliffe, who, with Miss Jennie E. Shelton. had ex- ercised taste and discrimination in select ing the gifts. At o'clock the exercises opened with singing, followed with prayer by the pastor. Recitations. interspersed with songs, were given by Minnie Clark, Maud Gabler, Nellie Hayes. Edna French. Julia Gabler. Those by Misses Lillie F. Beers and Emma Wheeler are worthy of special mention. Miss Emma Radcliffe presided at the organ. After remarks by the pastor, the gifts were distributed by Charles and Clarence Radcliffe. Each member of the Sunday school received a present from the school. while many re- ceived other tokens from friends. Rev Mr White was remembered, among other i things. with pair of blankets. quilt and tidy. Superintendent F. s. Shelton was

Drunkenness or the Liquor Habit Positively Cured
 by administering Dr. Haines' Golden Specific.
 It can be given in cup of coffee or tea without the knowledge of the person talk ing it; is absolutely harmless and will effect a permanent and speedy cure. whether the patient is moderate drinker or an alcoholic wreck. Thousands of drunkards have been made temperate men who have taken the Golden Specific in their coffee without their knowledge and to-day believe they quit drinking of their own free will. IT NEVER FAILS. The system once impregnated with the Specific it becomes an utter impossibility for the liquor appetite to exist.
